According to Kotaku, the release date for the title was revealed by id Software at the gaming convention QuakeCon 2010 in Dallas recently. The FPS come driving game is set to hit the PC, Mac, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 only on 13 September 2011 in the States and 15 September 2011 in Europe.

 

Rage is set on a post apocalyptic Earth that is in recovery after being hit by an asteroid, the aftermath of which turned the Earth’s surface into an environmental wasteland.
